Character graphs and a well-crafted emotional drama covering every aspect of college life in detail made ''Chunauti'' a big hit.<br />

''Chunauti'' highlighted the higher education system and generated tremendous response from thinkers, planners and common masses. In the serial, principal Shastri faces adversity. In the end, however, with the assistance of many of his students and colleagues he emerges victorious.<br />
